Pre-Charged (Low Self Discharge).
Similar to this deal but now only AAA is a good deal and the unit price for the 8-pack AAA is cheaper than 12- and 16-pack.
CamelCamelCamel.
As long as the eneloop charger accepts NiMH (most should) this will work.
yes they're the same NiMH type
Just curious what devices you use rechargeable battery on?
For example i only need to change tv remotebattery like once a year
Tuya temperature sensors, solar Christmas lights, wireless mouse…
Thanks, is the tuyajust to monitor temp or do u do other stuff with the temp readings?
@ATTS: Temperature and humidity. Handy for me to see when I'm not home so I know whether to turn the aircon on before I get there. Also good to see temperature trends in the house.
Small sensor lights for alleyways
Thanks where can u buy those sensor lights
@soan papdi: Thabks very useful
How did you mount it btw
I saw two attachments points
But not sure attached with nail or like a spin thing
@ATTS: Or just do what I do and put sensor lights on the ground against the wall. Maybe blue tack to the skirting.
@Fobsessive: Thanks smart idea
The 3m sticker thing might work better also. Havnt used those in a while.
meta quest controllers
tv controllers
movement sensors / stairway lights
camera flashes (sb600 etc) - the recycle time and number of flashes is WAY better than disposables for this application
but these are 800mAh… would that be too small for meta quest controllers?
@muddrex: sorry i was replying to the original thread where the person said
Just curious what devices you use rechargeable battery on?
Yes its on the small side. I still use eneloops lol
@Jimothy Wongingtons: cuz i use 2500 mAh ones and they already need relatively frequent replacements so when i thought you mentioned using these 800 mAh ones for Quest i'm like… would it even last one Beat Saber session?
@muddrex: hah yeah mine just the standard eneloop - tbh i never even looked up the mah - google says fresh ones are 2000mAh.
Nice thanks
Btw can you mak3 yout movements sensor send an push notification to your phone when sensor senses movements?
I'm replacing all my remote batteries to avoid leakage. Rather charge the battery once a year than deal with leaks.
So noob q but what cause battery leak? Ive only noticed it leaks if have battery inside and dont use the device for like 6 + months
@ATTS: Not 100% but I know that leaving discharged batteries in a device can cause leakage but I've seen batteries leak still in the packet as well as a leak in a remote I use semi-regularly (and was still working). Just not worth the risk for me anymore.
@Darkscythe: Thanks, yeah sounds better to get rechargeable to avoid a leak and damage.
I killed a smart body scale when i didnt weigh myself for like 6+ months
@ATTS: I don't need leaking batteries to kill my smart body scale if I don't weigh myself for 6 months.
Clocks, toys, bubble guns, dental flossy machines, automatic soap dispensers.
Thanks
AAA's - Bathroom & kitchen scales (always buy ones that take AAA's rather than button cells), remotes, clock in campervan.
AA's - Keyboard and too many mice, CO detector in campervan.
Thanks OP. Cheaper and easier than rolling the dice with whether Ikea has any Ladda batteries in stock on any given day.
But these don't seem to be Japanese made.
The Ladda are Japanese made? 😲
Yep, as far as I know, they are made in the same factory as Eneloops.
rebadged Eneloop Pro's, supposedly - same discharge signature. But last time I was there they didn't have any.
I’ve pretty much given up on IKEA Ladda batteries and had to get them from IKEA overseas. The IKEA sensors are really picky, people say they work better with Ladda batteries.
interesting? it's the same electrons
I think it's the difference between designing for rechargeable NiMH AAA or alkaline AAA. Different chemistries means different nominal voltages (1.2 or 1.5 volts respectively) and discharge curves.
The reverse is true of the majority of sensors which expect alkaline. I have a zigbee tap valve that never reports full charge with NiMH and stops working with capacity to spare.
The biggest difference between consumer NiMH is the name on the label and this isn't something the sensor can sense.
tl;dr same electrons
IKEA sensors just need 1.2V which is any rechargeable AA battery. Normal AA (non-rechargeable) is 1.5V. It's not a brand issue but voltage.
thanks OP missed the last one
suggest good cheap charger for these batteries?
Happy with my LiitoKala
Can we recharge then with IKEA chargers anyone tried ?
Yes
The batteries are made in Japan or China？
Description says China as the country of origin.
Damn literally just bought a 16pack the other day.
Thanks. Bought
Also purchased, haven’t seen ladda AAA in a very long time
Be interesting to know the actual self-discharge rates of these other NiMHs. In my very very very unscientific testing I got:
(sample size of only 2 lol so easily could pick a dud)
Zero day charge/test:
Very old Aldi Activ Energy: 574, 419
Very old Turnigy: 648, 818
Oldish LADDA: 697, 711
Recent Liitokala: 966, 973
~1 month discharge capacity:
Aldi #1: 498 (-15%)
Turnigy #1: 549 (-18%)
LADDA #1: 643 (-7.6%)
Liitokala #1: 890 (-8.7%)
~2 month discharge capacity:
Aldi #2: 0, dud?
Turnigy #2: 686 (-19%)
LADDA #2: 662 (-7.4%)
Liitokala #2: 807 (-20%)
Tested with Lii-600, so it's all relative to each other, not the marketed rating as such.
I bought a bunch of Turnigy LSDs years ago, and initially they were ok a few years (I'd say around 3 years when I noticed) they were garbage. This tracks.
Thanks OP. Assume i can put these in an eneloop charger ive got lying around?
